PLAN & PREPARE FOR IMPACT
There is still time to ensure you have everything you need for this blackout & plan for the most significant impact possible. To prevent "spike spending" before & after the BLACKOUT, we ask that all participants purchase goods needed from community-owned stores & markets leading up to & after the dates. This helps achieve sustained impact & keeps our money out of the pockets of mega businesses.
ABOUT THE MOVEMENT
BLACKOUT THE SYSTEM is a global movement born out of frustration, injustice, & the undeniable truth that the people hold the power - not corrupt governments, not billionaires, not broken systems.
This movement was launched to reclaim power, restore justice, & unite people across all races, cultures, & classes.
We are taking the steps necessary to build & strengthen parallel systems & networks within our own communities. The less reliant local communities are on big business, the more resilient, sustainable, & immune they become to wide-scale economic changes. In turn, it makes long-term resistance possible.
WHAT DO WE STAND FOR
Our nation has been under siege. The constitution has been attacked. The people have been lied to, oppressed, robbed, and degraded. The current administration has been bought & governmental corruption is rampant. Our veterans have been abandoned, our elderly have been left wanting, benefits have been removed from our children, & families are being torn apart each day. It is past time for this to stop.
WE THE PEOPLE WILL STOP IT.
WHY BLACKOUT THE SYSTEM?
We are done funding our own oppression. We are done being silent while the system exploits us, divides us, & works against us.
This movement is peaceful, but POWERFUL. We are using the greatest leverage we have - our unity & economic power - to bring the system down to its knees.
🚫NO to Dictatorships
🚫NO to Corporate Greed
🚫NO to Blind Obedience
🚫NO to Oppression
OTHER WAYS TO PUSH BACK COLLECTIVELY
Every person can take an action. Together, we become unstoppable.
